Interesting little group of songs. We start introspective, shucking someone or something away that's been holding us down. We escape. We jump into some Rage Against The Machine, which is highly appropriate considering where we are with this election. A jaunty little tune about how Mormonism is a cult, but then another one about having a "mystic mind." And then finally introspective again, I'm "dreaming of you, but I don't want you anymore."
1. Tori Amos - "Talula" (live 10/3/01 Nashville)
2. The Raveonettes - "Suicide"
3. Rage Against The Machine - "Mic Check"
4. Shannon and the Clams - "The Cult Song"
5. Those Darlins - "Mystic Mind"
6. The Coral - "Dreaming Of You"
Yes. That specific live version of "Talula" is what I'm listening to. It's one of my favorite versions.
talula
talula
i don't want to lose him
he must be worth losing
if it is worth something
talula
talula
he's brand new now to you
wrapped in your papoose
your little fig newton
Tori Amos - "Talula" (live 10/3/01 Nashville, TN)
Run run run away little girl
Get your fun in this trashy world
Empty-hearted boys by your side
Lick your lips and fuck suicide
This mic device
I spit nonfiction
Who got tha power
This be my question
Tha mass of tha few in this torn nation?
Tha priest tha book or tha congregation?
Tha politricks who rob and hold down your zone?
Or those who give tha thieves tha key to their homes?
Tha pig who's free to murder one Shucklak
Or survivors who make a move and murder one back?
Sick of the dancing sick of the chanting
I don't wanna be in your cult no more
Sick of the nikes sick of the kool-aid
I don't wanna be in your cult no more
Sick of moroni sick of nephi
I don't wanna be in your cult no more
Open up my third eye
...
I got a mystic mind
Up in my lonely room
When I'm dreaming of you
Oh what can I do
I still need you, but
I don't want you now
